Lucas Digne was 'DROPPED from Everton's 18-man squad for their last-gasp win over Arsenal for arguing with Rafa Benitez in Spanish', leaving the left-back's future in doubt next month

Lucas Digne's Everton future has been thrown into doubt after he was dropped from the 18-man squad for their win over Arsenal for arguing with boss Rafa Benitez.

The French left-back was nowhere to be seen when the Toffees pulled off an impressive comeback to beat the Gunners 2-1 on Monday night, with Ben Godfrey being played out of position to fill the gap left by Digne.

And according to The Athletic, the reason for Digne's absence was due to an argument he had with Benitez in Spanish, leaving the Everton boss to discipline the squad's only-recognised left-back before their crucial game at Goodison Park.
